It's nothing new, they've done it before

However, for those who pay close attention to detail, they will be able to remember that this unit has done this before in the recent past.

When India toured South Africa four years ago, after thumping the Proteas by 113 runs during the Boxing Day Test in Centurion, where they bowled the Proteas out for under 200 runs in both innings, the Proteas bounced back in style to win the series 2-1.
